Adele's advice from Robbie Williams

Adele has been getting tips on living in Los Angeles from Robbie Williams.

The 28-year-old singer is close pals with Robbie, 42, and his wife Ayda Field, 37, and has asked them for advice on keeping a low profile while living in LA with her partner Simon Konecki, 42, and their three-year-old son Angelo.

A source told the Sunday Mirror: "Adele craves a quiet life, and Robbie has been a huge support to her.

"He totally understands where she's coming from and he's a master at going unnoticed in LA. Here everyone is on the lookout for celebrities so it's the hardest place in the world to go under the radar.

"Robbie is one of the few people who fully understands what Adele is going through and the dynamics of being a new Brit in town.

"Adele's partner Simon loves the fact that he can be out of town and know she has such a strong support network."

Robbie and Ayda have recommended restaurants and shops to Adele, so that she can enjoy LA without being hassled by fans.

Adele recently bought a £7.1 million mansion in Beverly Hills, just minutes from Robbie and Ayda's home and revealed she and her family plan to spend a few months there are she finishes up her US tour.

She said: "I'm in America for eight months. I'm on tour and then I'm going to have Christmas in America. I haven't done that before, I'm really excited."
